Understood. That makes sense. In fact, your problem is most likely *not*
related to this commit. As I mentioned before, please try narrowing down
what specifically caused this; if I read correctly, you jumped from
2.6.33 to 2.6.36-rc1. There have been several important changes between
those releases. Notably, this commit may be giving Samsung chips problems:
426c457a3216fac74e
This thread is covering a few problems with Samsung:

Unless you really know what you're doing, I wouldn't be writing/erasing
the flash if it's not detecting bad blocks properly.
Let me know if you have trouble with narrowing down to the problem commit.
